Most of the guy's on here declaring their undying love for Dear Leader are the same ones that were declaring their undying love for Nigel Adkins only a short time ago.

Some of those probably had Le Tissiers name on their shirt or sang Benalli's name from the Archers end.

Some are probably old enough to have seen Lawrie Mac's boy's of 76 lift the FA Cup. (Jim Steele MoM).

Now today, you have become turncoats..... (very Italian)
Shame on you all.

Even if the saints win the champions league under his leadership, he is, and always will be, a schmuck.

My appreciation for Nigel is undimmed, but he ain't here any more, My hero worship for Matt and Franny is undiminished, they can't play for us anymore, Hero worship for Jim Steele hasn't changed one iota, I was there in '76. Loyal supporter for the future of the Club, the only turncoats are the cowards that are running away because they cannot man up to change, or haven't any view of a possible brilliant future, you can chose to follow the bus, or jump off it and run away to Nottarf Krap where you will be welcomed with open arms to celebrate the future there if there is one.

What a rediculous response from osprey. If supporting the man who stabbed one of our best managers in the back is "manning up" I will be happy to not be there. Real manning up is standing up to tyrants, not licking their boots.

Not ridiculous at all, how will standing up as you call it, get Nigel Adkins back? What did I say that was untrue? You and a few seem to have taken it badly, OK that's your choice, but you still have to accept what has happened, as it will never be reversed, your "stabbed in the back" expression is based on what exactly? Any proof that you have would be more than welcome on here because no one knows for sure how it was carried out.

The man found out that he had been sacked on thr tv. The man replacing him had been researching the players for weeks (in his own words). With regard to what will standing up to Cortese achieve, maybe nothing. But history will tell you what happens if you throw yourself at their feet. I have supported saints for 25 years. I have taken my sons to the saints and they are fervent supporters. But we all feel that the action of Cortese in sacking Adkins has taken something from our club that made it a little bit special. To be frank, the ability of some on here, who were so behind Adkins up to his sacking, to air brush all he did for us out of their minds, and are now swearing allegiance forever to Cortese just sickens me. Time will be the deciding factor on the actions of Cortese, but our club lost something valuable in the way it happened, and I for one will not blindly accept it.
